Hello guys! Back with another story here! This one's kinda different for me, a little bit more angsty than normal, but I hope you enjoy it! ^-^
Shoutout to Tumblr user thegavinbros for giving me this idea (if you're reading this you really should reply to our thread sometime soon, friend.)
So anyway, here goes!
LANA'S POV
I was only going shopping. It was a simple trip. I had my list, my purse, and I was all set and ready to go. I was planning to meet Ema after she finished work, catch up with her. It had been a while, so it would be nice to go to dinner with her once again.
I never expected to delay our plans- indefinitely.
I don't know how it happened. I was waiting to cross a road. It didn't seem too busy at the time, just a few cars coming past, not enough space for me to cross, of course. I watched the flashes of colour drive by. It was raining that day, and I stood under a black umbrella, careful not to let the cars splash me as they drove through puddles.
It wasn't long before I saw my chance. No cars were coming by, the soft sound of the rain pattering on the pavement. I always loved this weather, the dark, cloudy skies, the damp smell that filled the air. It was cleansing, refreshing, calming. I don't know how many times Ema laughed at me, telling me I was mad for wanting to go outside, but I didn't care, I enjoyed it, and that's all that mattered.
So I stepped out onto the road, and I guess it was then I stopped paying attention. It must have happened so quickly, one second it wasn't there, the next, it was. The squeal of brakes not stopping in time, the swerve of tyres on the flooding road, the loud bang as my body collided with the front of the vehicle. I could it all.
I don't remember much about what happened next.
i could hear their muffled voices, the blurred faces of the drivers as they called 999. I fought to stay awake, I had to beat the darkness that so desperately wanted to swallow me. Before long, blaring sirens stopped at the scene. It was probably here when I realised I was fighting a losing battle. I was weak, and the darkness was strong, I stood no chance.
What would Ema think? How would she react to this? Guilt flooded over me. I couldn't leave my little sister now! She was all I had left! I was all she had left!
The darkness beat me, and I was quickly swallowed into it's murky depths, knowing full well I'm not going to return. This was the end of me, it seemed.
I love you Ema, I really do. And it pains me immensely to say this, but I'm going to pay Mum and Dad a visit now, okay? I'll miss you, sis...
Okay, that was shorter than I would have hoped, but I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out! Tell me what you think and I'll hopefully write more soon!
